The Most Powerful Earthquakes In Wyoming Over The Last 100 Years

A recent series of earthquakes has shaken several countries across the world. Just yesterday, there was another 5.7 magnitude quake near Japan, prompting fears of tsunamis across the Pacific Ocean. Could Wyoming be next?

Wyoming has been the site of several major earthquakes. In 1959, a powerful 7.2 magnitude quake rocked Yellowstone. That was one of six earthquakes over 6.0 to strike the area within the last 100 years.
